A woman in Queens, New York killed her boyfriend and forced her kids to take part in the crime. According to reports by CBC Local New York, Dawn McIntosh, 46, accused her boyfriend Sh-Ron McWhorter, 43, of cheating and the two began  arguing in an alley in Queens, New York.

At some point, the argument escalated and McIntosh shot McWhorter in the side. McWhorter died from the gunshot wound and McIntosh began plotting her cover up. She decided to enlist her 21-year-old son and 15-year-old daughter to help get rid of McWhorter’s body.


Apparently, McWhorter’s body was too heavy and they couldn’t pick it up to transport it to another area. At that point, McIntosh poured fuel on his body and threw a match on it. McIntosh’s children watched as McWhorter’s body went up in flames.

When questioned by police, McIntosh claimed she hadn’t seen her boyfriend. However, detectives noticed that her fingernail was missing. When examining McWorter’s body, they found a fingernail on him.


McIntosh eventually confessed to the murder.  McWhorter’s mother says McIntosh often stalked her son. McIntosh has been charged with murder, criminal possession of a weapon and tampering with evidence. Her son, Donte Watkins, has been charged with tampering with evidence.
